Here's mine:
Hardwar(PC) 7/10 It's a great game but it doesn't seem to have much of a story line.
War Of The Worlds(PC) 8/10 A game based on Jeff Wayne's musical version. Excellent storyline and excellent graphics. It gets a bit repetative though.
Super Mario Bros DX (GBC) 8/10 It's an excellent platformer with much more than the original game! The only bad thing is the extra's in the "Toy box"
Command & Conquer Series (PC) 9/10 One of the best games series's ever created! Excellent storylines. graphics, controls, etc. But no game is perfect so I can't give it 10/10

Mario VGA (PC-Dos Shareware) 7/10 This was a very simple version of the MArio Bros game and is a lot like the battle mode of Mario bros 3! It was my first Mario game and I used to love it!
Dragon Warrior Monsters (GBC) 4/10 This Pokémon clone by Eidos was good at first but became pointless and repetative. If you want another poké-clone then get it but if you don't want a repetative RPG wait for the new Zelda duo of games coming out soon for the portable pal!

More of my own games reviewed:
Mario Golf (N64&GBC) 8/10 :This is a game that is really fun to play. It takes a while to get use to but will last you for ages. With most of the Nintendo characters to play as, loads of competitions, mini golf and Game Boy transfer pak compatibility, this is a great way to wind down after a long day.
Tomb Raider (GBC) 8/10 :Lara Croft on the Game Boy is an amazing acheivment by the developers. Mostly all the moves have somehow been added and the animation is incredible. With huge levels and loads of puzzles to solve, this game is another that will last you a while. One of the best platformer titles on the Game Boy.
Street Fighter Alpha 3 (DC) 9/10 :As a Street Fighter nut, this game is a dream to own. One of the best 2-D beat em ups around. Loads of characters, thousands of moves/combos, tons of game modes and arcade perfection in every way. Really needs arcade stick to get the most out of it. The only game that betters it though is Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (which I would rate 10/10).
Tony Hawks Pro Skater 2 (PSX) 10/10 :One of the best games to be released in quite a while. Ive spent a ridiculous ammount of hours playing this game, but it really is so addictive. It feels great being able to pull off new moves and search new areas with loads of freedom. The gameplay is faultless, the graphics are sharp, the music rocks and with an edit a park mode aswell, this could last forever (or untill a PS2 version gets released).
Gran Turismo 2 (PSX) 10/10 :The best racer ever!!! Everything about GT2 is class, the cars, the races, the graphics, the replays, the sound, the options.... everything!!! This is THE one to own, period.

That is exactly what I think of the FIFA soccer games!!!
Perfect Dark 9/10. Any one who was disappointed with this game got too hyped up about it.
Having played the Alien Ship level (the one where you get to play with the farsight) on perfect agent (it's not so good on easier difficulty settings) it's the greatest game ever!

Virtua Tennis (DC) 9/10 :One of the most addictive sport games ever to be released. So easy to pick up, difficult to master, impossible to put down.
Spiderman (PSX) 7/10 :Great game, nice presentation, neat graphics and gripping story line the classic Marvel way. Only dissapointment too easy.
Perfect Dark (N64) 9/10 :Betters Goldeneye in nearly every way. Superb handling, excellent visuals and a multiplayer to keep you hooked for years.
Jedi Knight, Dark Forces II (PC) 9/10 :Best Star Wars title ever, and one of the best first person shoot em ups (of its time). May look a bit old now but still one to get. Brilliant story, cut scenes, visuals and some of the most atmospheric music in a video game.
Metal Gear Solid (GBC) 8/10 :Works extremely well on the Game Boy. Everything that made the PSX game good is included here. Can become a bit to frustrating at times though (which is probably a sign of a good game).

Star Trek The Next Generation: A Final Unity (PC) 8/10
Don't underestimate Star Trek Games! This is an excellent game featuring Klingons, Romulans, Garidians and more! All characters are interactive and the worlds are fun to explore! Can you make peace between the Garidians?
Perfect Dark (N64) 8/10 Maybe a better game than Goldeneye graphically but it's not got the originalty that Goldeneye had! The aiming is much better and so is the enemies reactions but Goldeneye is a classic that can only be beaten by a brand new idea!
Virtual Springfield (PC) 4/10 A bit boring, nothing much happens.

Duke Nukem Atomic Edition (PC) 8/10 The thirdgame of the series and the first in 3D! The build editor's great and you can even change the levels if you are good at it! It may be a lil outdated but it doesn't mean it isn't good! My brother got if for Ł3.99 in a Replay budget range so surely that's not too much money to spare!
Pokémon (N64, GB, GBC) 9/10 This is one of the best gaming series's for all ages! Nintendo tour around major countries to se who's the best, everywhere you go you see Pikachu in a window, the games are so addictive and I can beat everyone!
Mario Kart (N64) 8/10 Not as popular as the SNES version but just as good! The 2 player grand prix is the best mode and it's a pity you can't do it with more than 2 players! Still there's the vs modes for any more people!
Dinkey Kong (GB) 7/10 A platformer/puzzle game! (The original was the first to star MArio) Kept me going for weeks! It's even in full colour if you play it on a Super Gameboy! A game-link mode would have been nice though.
Wario Land (GB) 8/10 The first of the series of Wario games! A great introduction to a new Nintendo character and an excellent platformer! This is one of my favourite monochrome gameboy games!
Goldeneye (N64) 9/10 An excellent Bond game! What more can I say? Excellent multiplayer, excellent single player and the difficulty modes make the game last even longer!

Wario Land 2 (GBC) 7/10 Another excellent portable platformer. The bosses are a lil tricky though and the ghosts are so annoying!
Zelda 3 (SNES) 9/10 One of the best games ever created! In my opinion no Zelda game has ever topped the SNES version!
Total Annihilation (PC) 8/10 Another War time strategy but a lil faster than C&C. I prefer C&C because the story lines are much better than TA but TA is still a good game!
Mario Kart (SNES) 8/10 This changed the way people think about racing games! This made my thumbs ache for ages as it was so addictive!
Ocarina Of TIme (N64) 8.5/10 This caused the doctors to think of a name for the sore thumbs that kept on coming since this games release! They named it "Nintendo Thumb" Once again a great game but I still prefer the SNES version.
Legend (SNES) 6/10 A Goldenaxe clone for the SNES. It was a great game but too repetative. MY brother loved it especially because of the multiplayer mode!
Mario Allstars (SNES) 8/10 A whole selection of Mario games for the SNES on one cart! Cool! He may just be a short fat plumber but he was the star of the best platformer ever!
